In this edition, Gabriel meets with Fredrik Lindén and Marie Linde, CEO and Deputy CEO of West Sweden Tourism to talk about their ethos of Stepping Up Sustainability. Stepping Up Sustainability is based upon four pillars of working toward a greener, more cohesive, locally focused, wholistic approach to a sustainable tourism industry. Fredrik and Marie offer insights on how the company's sustainable way of life came about, its successes, challenges and what's next for Stepping Up Sustainability.

Gabriel then chats to three tourism businesses, Gunnebo House and Gardens, a heritage experience based just outside Gothenburg, which recently won a West Sweden award for its sustainable working practices; Swedish Country Living, a unique place to stay in Dalsland, the northern part of the region, which won a 360 degree Eat Guide Award for its sustainability work; and Pathfinders a local tour company providing sustainable trips around West Sweden.
